Dizziness.

[quinkie]

Have you been checked for Mineer's (Sp?) ?

[Crushmaster]

Yes, I have. Thankfully, it was negative. That's one of the weird things, though - none of my doctors have thought what I have is serious, and none of the tests have pointed to it being that, either. So, it could be something very simple - and perhaps even easy - to fix, but, if we don't know what it is, it doesn't matter (for the moment).

Thank you for asking.

Dizziness iS serious if you are the one who is dizzy. It is a miserable condition.
Have you been checked for multple myeloma?

That's a very good point.

I don't think so...Let me go Google it.

Hmm...The symptoms don't seem to match. They did a CDC (complete blood count)...Would that have caught it? I've also had an MRI...

The reason I ask is because a friend of mine had it and the way it was caught was he had an inner ear infection, and in trying to figure out what was going on with his inner ear (the problem he went to emergency was for dizziness), a blood count came back that he was anemic and the doctor wanted to know about the anemia - I just wondered since Kitagirl had mentioned inner ear. Added: the blood count did not catch it, but because he could not find a reason for the anemia, he dug further and found the multiple myeloma.

I assume you've been checked for thyroid and all those other hormonal tests?

Just a suggestion (again) - maybe consider seeing a chiropractor? I have problems with dizziness from time to time and invariably it's my spine needing a bit of adjustment. That may not be it, but it could be, and the relief is almost instantaneous.

Interesting. Thank you.

No ma'am, I have not. However, I seem to recall we looked at the symptoms and they didn't seem to match.

Yes ma'am, that's been suggested. We have not visited. One friend told us they could probably tell us if they could help without us even coming in...which is good, because I feel so horrid that I do not want to leave the house.

Thank you for the continued prayers and support, everyone.
